Transport after the pandemic

Has Covid-19 made us re-think the way we travel, privately and publicly? And if fewer of us use public transport how will it survive? Evan Davis and guests discuss.

Has staying at home during lockdown made us think more about our travel habits? Are you less likely to want to get on a bus or a train to get to work or are you itching to get on the next available flight? And what about the business travel industry? Are companies realising tele-conferencing is now just as acceptable and a cheaper option than a business flight? Evan Davis and guests discuss.
